Draft Genome Sequence of the Oleaginous Yeast Cryptococcus curvatus ATCC 20509

Journal Article Close, Dan ; Ojumu, John - Genome Announcements

Cryptococcus curvatus ATCC 20509 is a commonly used nonmodel oleaginous yeast capable of converting a variety of carbon sources into fatty acids. In addition, we present the draft genome sequence of this popular organism to provide a means for more in-depth studies of its fatty acid production potential.

Draft genome sequence of Yarrowia lipolytica NRRL Y-64008, an oleaginous yeast capable of growing on lignocellulosic hydrolysates

Journal Article Jagtap, Sujit Sadashiv ; Liu, Jing-Jing ; Walukiewicz, Hanna E. ; ... - Microbiology Resource Announcements

ABSTRACT Yarrowia lipolytica is an oleaginous yeast that produces high titers of fatty acid-derived biofuels and biochemicals. It can grow on hydrophobic carbon sources and lignocellulosic hydrolysates. The genome sequence of Y. lipolytica NRRL Y-64008 is reported to aid in its development as a biotechnological chassis for producing biofuels and bioproducts.

Expression and secretion of fungal endoglucanase II and chimeric cellobiohydrolase I in the oleaginous yeast Lipomyces starkeyi

Journal Article Xu, Qi ; Knoshaug, Eric P. ; Wang, Wei ; ... - Microbial Cell Factories

Lipomyces starkeyi is one of the leading lipid-producing microorganisms reported to date; its genetic transformation was only recently reported. Our aim is to engineer L. starkeyi to serve in consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) to produce lipid or fatty acid-related biofuels directly from abundant and low-cost lignocellulosic substrates. To evaluate L. starkeyi in this role, we first conducted a genome analysis, which revealed the absence of key endo- and exocellulases in this yeast, prompting us to select and screen four signal peptides for their suitability for the overexpression and secretion of cellulase genes. To compensate for the cellulase deficiency, we chose twomore »« less

Functional genomics of lipid metabolism in the oleaginous yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides

Journal Article Coradetti, Samuel T. ; Pinel, Dominic ; Geiselman, Gina M. ; ... - eLife

The basidiomycete yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides (also known as Rhodotorula toruloides) accumulates high concentrations of lipids and carotenoids from diverse carbon sources. It has great potential as a model for the cellular biology of lipid droplets and for sustainable chemical production. We developed a method for high-throughput genetics (RB-TDNAseq), using sequence-barcoded Agrobacterium tumefaciens T-DNA insertions. We identified 1,337 putative essential genes with low T-DNA insertion rates. We functionally profiled genes required for fatty acid catabolism and lipid accumulation, validating results with 35 targeted deletion strains. We identified a high-confidence set of 150 genes affecting lipid accumulation, including genes with predicted functionmore »« less

Chimeric cellobiohydrolase I expression, activity, and biochemical properties in three oleaginous yeast

Journal Article Alahuhta, Markus ; Xu, Qi ; Knoshaug, Eric P. ; ... - Biotechnology for Biofuels

Consolidated bioprocessing using oleaginous yeast is a promising modality for the economic conversion of plant biomass to fuels and chemicals. However, yeast are not known to produce effective biomass degrading enzymes naturally and this trait is essential for efficient consolidated bioprocessing. We expressed a chimeric cellobiohydrolase I gene in three different oleaginous, industrially relevant yeast: Yarrowia lipolytica, Lipomyces starkeyi, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae to study the biochemical and catalytic properties and biomass deconstruction potential of these recombinant enzymes. Our results showed differences in glycosylation, surface charge, thermal and proteolytic stability, and efficacy of biomass digestion. L. starkeyi was shown to be anmore »« less
